Tuesday, September 18, 1958 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE THREE Fancy Foods Now Filling Grocery Baskets of All New York (U.R) Fancy foods, which once whetted only the appetites of the carriage trade, now fill the market baskets of meat and potato devotees. The boom in such exotic items as pheasant pate, muskrat stew, quail eggs and wild boar in wine sauce began after World War II. And today, dealers and retailers report their cash registers are ringing up new highs in sales of botli domestic and imported delicacies. "Caviar no longer is just for the Vanderbilts," said Ronald Kyton, general manager of the 108-year- old Charles and Co., one of the nation's leading re tailers of specialty foods. "These days, everybody's a gourmet." There are several reasons for the fancy foods boom, said Harold Roth, president of the National Association for the Specialty Food Trade. Inc. "Prosperity for one tiling," he explained. "People can afford to indulge. Travel for another. . .it broadens tastes too. "And with television, people entertain more at home. It used to be, everybody sat around munching peanuts. Now the hostess serves the fancy stuff." A n association spokesman cited trade paper figures show ing that in 1955, Americans spent S640 million on foods other than standard" grocery items. "It's safe to assume most of that went for what we call the fancy foods," the added. Caviar, the pates, the fancy cheeses, meats, candies and fruits are the top sellers. spokesman . The association lists some 20 000 foods as specialty items, even to rattlesnake ice cream featured each Hallowe'en time by a Rochester store. Business Machine Show Scheduled in Medford The Medford chapter of the National Office Management as sociation will sponsor a South ern Oregon Business Machine show Sept. 26-28 in the base ment of the Walker building, next to the Bear Creek bridge.
